Knowing how the story ends does not take away anything from watching the story being told, because it so incredible that maybe, just maybe it really didn’t happen. “Man on Wire” is an unforgettable documentary that speaks to commitment, dreams, love and accomplishing the impossible.
As I watched this movie I kept shaking my head, certain that I lacked both the courage and the insanity attempt something like walking on a wire between the World Trade Center Twin Towers, however each of us comes face to face with our own wire act. The film served as both entertainment and a metaphor for the challanges we face each day that look impossible when we wake and are accomplished before we go to sleep that night.
The film is on DVD and a must see.
